At SDCC, Mattel commented that they were looking to keep the price 'around the $300 mark', but that they would likely have to reduce it in size to bring it in at that price. And, in the last answer session provided, Mattel stated they were going to scale the first prototype we saw at SDCC down by about 10% to 20%.

Would you rather they scaled it down a bit to bring it in for around $300? Or would you rather they kept it at the size it was revealed at and charge more for it? Or do you have no interest in it at all?

Vote today in this fan poll! You don't have to be registered to&nbsp;He-Man.Org&nbsp;to vote. Spread the word to fans you know, and be sure to vote before tonight Sunday, August 2nd, 2015 at 11:00 PM EST.

]]>Sun, 02 Aug 2015 14:41:14 GMThttp://he-man.org/news_article.php?id=4759Post your questions for Mondo about their upcoming 1:6 scale MOTU action figure line!http://he-man.org/news_article.php?id=4758
As originally posted over at Idle Hands, we found out that Mondo is going to be making a licensed line of Masters of the Universe figures.

According to Mondo's Creative Director-Toys/Collectibles Brock Otterbacher, "The idea is to take the basic designs of the original figures, some of the art from the original mini comics and packaging, add a bit of realism to them, along with a bit of our own tastes, and create a series of high-end figures that fans like us would be stoked to have. Designed by Dave Rapoza. Sculpted by Ramirez Studios. EPIC."

All we've seen so far is the teaser image below. They're keeping very hush about things until MONDOCON this October. But they are up for doing a Q&A with fans to let you know whatever info they can share before the con!

So click here to post your questions on the He-Man.Org forums about the upcoming and still mysterious MOTU action figure line from Mondo! ]]>Sun, 02 Aug 2015 08:45:36 GMThttp://he-man.org/news_article.php?id=4758Power-Con 2016 ticket and exclusive pricing has been posted!http://he-man.org/news_article.php?id=4757

Are you ready for the power to return on June 4th and 5th!?&nbsp;Tickets for the 2016 Power-Con show in Los Angeles, CA will be available for pre-order on Saturday, August 15th at 9:00am Pacific / 12:00pm Eastern.

Each attendee may pre-purchase up to three of each exclusive for every ticket pre-ordered. We anticipate the exclusives to sell out during the ticket pre-order period so please plan accordingly!

Attendees may not purchase multiple tickets for themselves; you may only purchase additional tickets for others who will be in your party, in attendance, at the convention. Attendees and everyone in your party for whom you have purchased tickets must be present at the time of ticket pick-up. Attendees must be present at the convention to pick up their exclusives; they will not be shipped.

Ticket Pricing:&bull; Full Weekend Pass: $40&bull; Saturday Only Pass: $25&bull; Sunday Only Pass: $25&bull; Power Pass: $150 (limited to&nbsp;only&nbsp;10 passes)The Power Pass includes: Full Weekend Pass to the convention, special Power Pass badge, all ticket pre-order incentive items (see below), free Power-Con t-shirt, guaranteed front-row panel seating, and VIP access to Power-Con&rsquo;s green room (you never know who might be in there!). Note: You must pre-order the MOTUC exclusives separately, they are not included.

Children under the age of 12 may enter the show for free without a ticket. They are not eligible to purchase the exclusives unless a ticket is purchased for them.

Pending performance of pre-order sales, we cannot guarantee there will be additional figure stock for purchase at the convention. Each figure is planned to come on a standard&nbsp;Masters of the Universe Classics&nbsp;blister card that is inside a mailer box and Granamyr will come in the standard &ldquo;MOTUC&rdquo; packaging with box art inside a mailer box. Packaging is subject to change.

The vendor that will be processing pre-orders uses a shopping cart reserve system. Once you add an item to your cart, you will have approximately ten minutes to complete your order. If an item is in your cart, you do not need to fear that item selling out before you can complete your order as long as you complete your order within ten minutes. We will have more detailed information closer to the pre-sale date.

Can&rsquo;t attend the show but still want to obtain these exclusives?

Fans who are unable to attend the show may purchase a special non-attendee merchandise access pass which will allow the holder to purchase up to one of each exclusive at the prices listed above PLUS shipping and handling which will be flat rates for domestic and international fans. Please note that we can't control the price of shipping, especially the high cost of international shipping. Specific pricing on the exclusives with the shipping/handling included will be provided on August 15.

As a non-attendee merchandise access pass holder, you will also receive a physical merchandise access pass badge as a souvenir with your figures for supporting the convention, as well as a copy of the convention&rsquo;s program and all ticket pre-order incentive items. Non-attendees will not be eligible for Power-Con t-shirt pre-orders.

&bull; Non-attendee merchandise access pass: $25

Note to all:&nbsp;The exclusive Masters of the Universe Classics figures are sold as-is with no returns or exchanges. All sales are final.

Mattel has once again provided answers to your questions. Thanks again to them for taking the time to answer these!Check out their answers to your Round 148 questions!

This round of questions were selected by Count Judas.Thanks to that fan for their help!

1.&nbsp;MegaGearMax: Just as Filmation Hordak being a repaint of vintage Hordak was disappointing to a number of Filmation fans, Battleground Evil-Lyn being a repainted Evil-Lyn was disappointing to a number of 200x fans. What are the chances of getting a proper 200x Evil-Lyn in the future?

We understand the disappointment. If that figure is in high demand, we can definitely look into adding her to the line. With the current direction of the MOTUC Fans' Choice, that is where your requests can come to life. It just needs to have substantial support and noise from He-Fans for it to move to the top.

2.&nbsp;Uncle Jake: How committed is Mattel to completing the vintage New Adventures of He-Man characters?

We think there are great characters from that world, and the Horsemen have done an amazing job updating the designs, so it really just depends on how they perform in 2016. We have two NA characters in the Fans' Choice sub with Darius and Crita, so let's see how they do.

3.&nbsp;Jubilation: Now that all the vintage POP heroic females are close to being done, are you aware of the demand from a number of fans for the heroic female POP character Granita?

Yes we are. It would be great to finish the Rock People.

4.&nbsp;Count Judas: With the possible rebranding of the line in 2016, will the new Mattel team offer fun and creative incentives for those who order next year's subscription? Perhaps something like a customer voted character vehicle, or picking a color choice for an upcoming release, or choosing what will be included in a new weapons or heads pack?

We are open to doing some new and fun things with the line, but just not sure what. Those are all great ideas to think about.

5.&nbsp;Jeevesosiris: The ankle articulation on MOTUC figures has become more and more limited, something made more problematic with the frequent loss of the boot cut articulation on a lot of the more unique sculpts we have been getting in the line. This loss of articulation is a real hindrance when it comes to posing. For 2016, will the ankle articulation be looked into and improved?

This issue is already on our radar and we are adjusting this in every figure that we can.
